A/N This is my first fanfiction. Please, as much as your constructive criticism is appreciated, don't be mean to me. Dick Wolf owns all of the places/characters that you recognise. I might add in a few of my own as the story progresses. If you don't like it, let me know and I won't continue with it. (This is just the intro, I know how terribly short it is).
Casey Novak.
Granted, she wasn't the easiest person in the world to get along with.
Granted, her icy stare made you feel as if you would rather be in a locked room with a million wasps buzzing around your head than be against her in court.
Granted, she could argue a case like no other, and her work was her whole life.
Granted, her past was a bit more marked up than the other SVU members' were. But once you got to know her, you would love her. Secretly, they all did.
Cassandra Samantha Anne Novak first and foremost clashed with Assistant District Attorney Alexandra Stephanie Cabot. They were just too alike to click, or so everyone thought. Heck, the first words one another said to each other was "Who the h*** are you?!" But they clicked, they all did.
By now, aside from the distress the cases of the SVU came with, all the team was like a family. That is until a certain someone named Kimberly Greyleck had to join the SVU. With her infamous appearance, the Sex Crimes Unit also had an old 'friend' tag along. Danielle Beck.
"Oh God." The detectives followed Casey's gaze as she abruptly turned from the white board everyone's eyes were fixated on. Not to say the meticulous and antagonizing case they have been trying for weeks to solve wasn't interesting, but whatever Casey had spotted was a of higher degree of interesting.
"What in the world???" Her stare showed utter disbelief. She picked up her blue coat with it's black lace trimming and simultaneously brushed her dark red hair out of her eyes, as if the scene she was currently witnessing was somehow marred by the hair that was blocking her view. She then clasped her leather briefcase in her left hand, and high tailed it out of the SVU squad room.
"Oh. Look Elliot. It's your girlfriend," offered Detective Odafin Tutuola as they all watched Dani Beck enter the squad room. All except Casey that is, because she knew how to avoid getting into a fight when certain characters walked through the doors.
Olivia cocked her eyebrow at the giddy statement made by the man who looked more like a gang-banger than a decorated detective.
"What Elliot, you don't want to say hi?" She hit her partner of twelve years on the arm before they were interrupted by Dani's slightly high-pitched voice.
"Hey guys," she said with a slight wave of her hand. Everyone except Elliot subtly became more frigid and cold. Sensing she wasn't the most-welcome person, Dani offered, "Come on guys. What's the matter? The temperature in here just dropped two degrees."
That got a statement from Mr. Conspiracy, also known as John Munch. "Well, I hear the government is using all our heat for…other projects."
"Shut up." Fin was tired of his partner's rants, but he always got John back with jokes like his "special pillow."
Just then Cragen stuck his head through the door of his office. "Benson, Stabler, Beck, there's been an abduction at the DA's office. I want you there…Now."
